1. AND Function

Purpose: Returns TRUE if all arguments evaluate to TRUE; otherwise,


it returns FALSE.

Syntax: AND(logical1, [logical2], ...)

Example:
•=AND(A1 > 10, B1 < 5)
If A1 is 15 and B1 is 3, this returns TRUE because both
conditions are met.
2. COUNT Function

Purpose: Counts the number of cells that contain numbers.

Syntax: COUNT(value1, [value2], ...)

Example:
•=COUNT(A1:A10)
If cells A1 through A10 contain numbers, the function
returns the count of those numbers.
3. COUNTA Function

Purpose: Counts the number of cells that are not empty.

Syntax: COUNTA(value1, [value2], ...)

Example:
•=COUNTA(A1:A10)
If cells A1 through A10 contain any data (numbers, text, etc.), the
function returns the count of those cells.
4. COUNTBLANK Function

Purpose: Counts the number of empty cells in a range.

Syntax: COUNTBLANK(range)

Example:
•=COUNTBLANK(A1:A10)
If cells A1 through A10 have 3 empty cells, this function returns
3.
5. MAX Function

Purpose: Returns the largest value in a set of values.

Syntax: MAX(number1, [number2], ...)

Example:
•=MAX(A1:A10)
If the numbers in A1 through A10 are 3, 7, 2, 10, and 6, the
function returns 10
6. MEDIAN Function

Purpose: Returns the median (middle value) of the given


numbers.

Syntax: MEDIAN(number1, [number2], ...)

Example:
•=MEDIAN(A1:A5)
If A1 through A5 are 1, 3, 7, 10, and 15, the median
is 7.
7. MEAN (AVERAGE) Function

Purpose: Calculates the average (mean) of the given


numbers.

Syntax: AVERAGE(number1, [number2], ...)

Example:
•=AVERAGE(A1:A5)
If A1 through A5 are 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25, the
average is 15.
8. MODE Function

Purpose: Returns the most frequently occurring number in a set of


values.

Syntax: MODE(number1, [number2], ...)

Example:
•=MODE(A1:A10)
If A1 through A10 contain the numbers 2, 3, 3, 5, and 7, the
mode is 3.
12. SUM Function

Purpose: Adds all the numbers in a range of cells.

Syntax: SUM(number1, [number2], ...)

Example:
•=SUM(A1:A5)
If A1 through A5 contain the numbers 5, 10, 15, 20,
and 25, the sum is 75.
9. MIN Function

Purpose: Returns the smallest value in a set of values.

Syntax: MIN(number1, [number2], ...)

Example:
•=MIN(A1:A10)
If the numbers in A1 through A10 are 3, 7, 2, 10, and 6, the
function returns 2.
10. AVERAGE Function

Purpose: Calculates the average (mean) of the given numbers.


(Same as MEAN)

Syntax: AVERAGE(number1, [number2], ...)

Example:
•=AVERAGE(A1:A5)
If A1 through A5 are 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25, the average is
15.
11. IF Function

Purpose: Checks a condition and returns one value if TRUE,


and another value if FALSE.

Syntax: IF(logical_test, value_if_true, value_if_false)

Example:
•=IF(A1 > 10, "High", "Low")
If A1 is 15, the function returns "High".
13. SUMIF Function
Purpose: Adds the cells specified by a given condition or criteria.

Syntax: SUMIF(range, criteria, [sum_range])

Example:
•=SUMIF(A1:A5, ">10")
If A1 through A5 contain the numbers 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25, the
function returns 60 (sum of 15, 20, and 25 because they are
greater than 10).
These functions are fundamental in Excel and are widely used for data
analysis, calculations, and logical operations.
